The Tunnels

 


Bland County is the only county in the United States thate is entered and exited via Interstate Tunnels. Big Walker Mountain located a few hundred yards from the Wythe County line and East River Mountain,which forms the Virginia and West Virginia border, are the locations of these tunnels. Bland County was a very isolated place before these tunnels were constructed. Now Bluefield and Wytheville are minutes away.
